Zhou Pingyu did not expect Young Master Xie to come clean with him, and this made him like and respect Young Master Xie even more . So far, all he knew about Young Master Xie was from the things he heard, and this one meeting had caused a sort of admiration to rise from his heart .
He was right . They were all doing it for that person in their hearts . That was why he believed in Young Master Xie's words . His diligence and lack of fear for hardships were all because he had his girlfriend as his motivation .
For this reason, he understood Young Master Xie's heart . It was often said that Young Master Xie doted on his wife—in Ning An City, you could offend anyone you wanted except Miss Yun .
Indeed, there were many truths to prove that statement . Anyone who did not treat that statement seriously and offended Miss Yun often ended up miserable .
Even with a hand on his chest as he asked himself, no matter how much he cared about Xintong, he couldn't protect her as well . Young Master Xie was probably every woman's dream—aside from being powerful, he loyally doted on one wife .
Looking at how Zhou Pingyu was staring at him, Young Master Xie coughed before asking, "So, what do you think? I can ensure your safety . You just have to work hard in Zi Bei City and try to occupy the highest position . "
Zhou Pingyu stood up and replied respectfully, "Thank you very much, Young Master Xie . " He was very grateful . Young Master Xie gave him hope and pointed him to an advantageous path . As long as he worked hard and did well, he would be able to fulfill the promise he made to Xintong .
Xie Limo's lips tilted up as he complimented him, "As expected, Zhou Pingyu, you don't disappoint . " With how messy Zi Bei City was, a person without a certain degree of courage would not be willing to go .
"It's an honor for me to meet you, Young Master Xie . Your help is greatly appreciated, and I will cherish this opportunity . " Since he had a lackluster family background, he only relied on himself . He would not be able to pass even the interview without an influential backer . He was genuinely indebted to Young Master Xie—his gratitude was beyond compare .
After the conversation with Zhou Pingyu, Young Master Xie started another storm in Ning An City . He revamped the examination's interview stage by employing an overt method which would allow the public to supervise it . He even removed the mentor interviews to prevent anyone from getting in through the back door .
This created a fair environment for the common people . With this move, Young Master Xie won over even more of Ning An City's citizens' support, and an increasing number of people praised and defended him .
There were, of course, people who resented Young Master Xie . These were the good-for-nothings who wanted to obtain a position and do their work incompetently . This reform from Young Master Xie was entirely out of nowhere, taking them by surprise . They did not expect Young Master Xie to play this move . They thumped at their chest and stomped on their feet, but they did not dare to say anything in front of Young Master Xie's face .
…
The time passed quickly, and the weather was starting to become warm . Yun Bixue, who was following up on the filming of a drama, was under the sun for the entire day . She worked continuously and did not manage to drink a lot of water . When she arrived home, she was already showing signs of a heat stroke .
She was not very bothered, but when Xie Limo returned, he unleashed his fury on Xie Shiyi, "This is your second time not doing your duties properly . There won't be a next time . "
Xie Shiyi was filled with guilt . She was indeed negligent in her duties today .
Yun Bixue was lying on the mattress in the study, and she waved her hand unhappily . "Don't scold Xie Shiyi . I asked her to do some other tasks . Besides, I had Yun Dong by my side . They cannot read minds, so if I do not show it, they wouldn't know that I wasn't feeling well . Anyway, I'm fine right now, right?" Now that Yun Dong had completed her task, she returned to her original appearance and was following by her side .
After hearing Yun Bixue's explanation, Xie Limo reined in his anger . He sat by her side and picked up the green bean soup to feed her . He said in a resigned tone, "You have to take care of yourself . If something happened, it would be too late . Stop thinking like that and don't risk yourself . "
